Sally loves Valentine’s day. Her favorite colors are red and pink and her favorite pastime is making cards for her friends. This year she sits down at her craft table with pink, red and white construction paper, markers and some glue. She cuts out heart shapes and glues them together to make a cute bird face and inside writes “You’re TWEET.”
She makes cards for her friends Suzy and Rachel, she makes cards for the kids that sit near her in class, John and Matt. When she got to Scott’s card she felt the urge to add extra hearts inside. Scott is the new kid in class and he is kind and sweet. Sally hopes he’ll notice that his card is extra special. Sally hopes Scott thinks she’s extra special too. Maybe he’ll ask her to be his Valentine this year.
The next day Sally brings her bag of Valentines to class. She made one for each kid in class and the extra special one for Scott. She passes out the cards to all her friends, they all tell her how cute they are and give her a card in return…
Then she gets to Scott. Her heart starts to pitter patter. He takes the card. “Oh, um thanks. Is Valentine’s today? I forgot.”
Poor Sally!! Hopefully there relationship develops after this - or not!
ReplyDeleteThis is a cute story with an unpredictable ending. Just a note, I think you want to change the first word in your second to last sentence.
Good luck with the contest!

ReplyDeletePoor Sally, but that's the way it is sometimes, right? It's real. Good luck in the contest.
ReplyDeleteMen or boys ... we need a few groceries ... but as I went in to the parking lot I thought oh oh ... those men again - dropping in at the last minute for some flowers or chocolates ...
ReplyDeletePoor Sally - Scott might be omitted off her list for next year ... cheers Hilary
Aww... it made me gasp out loud! I can't believe poor Sally got hurt like that!
ReplyDeleteGood luck in the contest!
Haha, nice ending. Good luck with this cute story!
ReplyDeleteNice job, Jaclyn! I felt Sally's hopefulness, and her little crush on Scott, as well as her kindness in wanting to make the new kid feel welcome. And how disappointed she must have been that Scott forgot Valentine's Day! Well written! Thanks so much for joining in the contest fun!
